PCNA is well aware of the issue. bring screenshots from the forum and share that basically all other dealers have covered this with no issue. I'm sure the new dealer will be happy to earn your biz.
Reach out to PCNA directly as well.

it’s unclear man..
window #1: broke likely from the torsion of a steep turn. But it’s possible it was broken before the turn, I wasn’t actually the one that noticed it first, it was my Detailer.
window #2: this was definitely cause from hitting the quarter panel window, due to misalignment, it hit the back window when closing the door.
window #3: the dealer broke this one. They have a steep turn down into their basement, which is where the car was driven to be stored while it was waiting for new windows #1 and #2. They think it broke while driving it down that ramp, I wasn’t even there so I don’t know.
it’s so weird!!!!

terrible on Porsche. I’m completely confused that your experience was opposite to mine with the same defect. My guy literally called Porsche HQ and they said they’re aware of it and it was automatically warrantied. I didn’t have to do anything.
they’ve replaced three broken windows now.

Having lived with the 992 for a week Im struck how vulnerable the door glass is to being grabbed during door closure esp by passengers and wonder if this contributes to some cases . Doesn't explain the windscreen or quarter lights of course ...

Getting the car ready for my first trip to the track with it and worried about attaching my Garmin Catalyst to the windshield with a suction cup mount. It’s a pretty big device that even mounted close to the dash will apply enough atypical force to cause a problem with the glass. Just the possibility of a problem at speed makes me rethink using it.
What has been the groups’ experience with windshield mounted data devices and cameras?

So far no problems with suction cup mounted VBOX camera, OLED and AIM Solo. I’m not throwing the towel in yet with Porsche Track Precision. I will be adding a cell phone mount suction cup too.
